Abstract

Abstract Landscape patterns of phenotypic coevolution are determined by variation in the outcome of predator–prey interactions. These outcomes may depend not only on the functional phenotypes that mediate species interactions, but also on aspects of the environment that enable encounters between coevolutionary partners. Exploring the relationship between coevolutionary traits and the environment requires extensive sampling across the range of the interaction to determine the relationship between local ecological variation and coevolution. In this study, we synthesized >30 years of data on predator–prey interactions between toxic newts (Tar…(more)
